David Hockney questions what perspective really is. He emphasizes the idea of everyone having different perspectives. There is not one correct perspective, there are many different types. That is what he tries to show in his photos and paintings. He makes one big photograph with many tiny little photos, which represent the many different perspectives. David Hockney says it is extremely easy to show the many different perspectives in a painting, but chemical photography cannot show that. He has discovered what is wrong with photography and is now using editing tools to help show the many different perspectives in chemical photography. All David Hockney is doing is trying to show the many possible different viewpoints that could be showcased in his art, which is what I am trying to do with this photograph below with cubism.
I'm afraid this will need to be redone. You have definitely created a collage but none of the pieces seem to work with each other. If you take another look at Hockney's photographs, you'll see that while he does them in pieces, he connects them back to recreate the original image with another perspective. If you have questions, let me know. I will put in a missing until you can reshoot.
ReplyDeleteDoes this make more sense to you? Just so you know, your collage was interesting - I just wanted to have you experience Hockney's "vision".
